1. The use of pulses
Register %MB3.9809 controls the sending and
receiving of pulses from the 0 to 3 axis ports:
When the corresponding bit value for each axis 0 to 3 is
1 (example: change the value of %MB3.9809 to 15, i.e.
"1111"), the pulse receiving pins of the 0 to 3 axis port of the
VA controller hardware will change to pulse sending
(corresponding to 5 to 8 axes respectively in software). Up
to 8 axes (0 to 3, 5 to 8) can be pulsed.
When the corresponding bit value of each axis 0 to 3 is
0 (example: change the value of %MB3.9809 to 0, i.e.
"0000"), the 0 to 3 axes will be able to send and receive
pulses.
Caution:
(1) The last axis port on the hardware receives pulses
only.
(2) The last axis port on the hardware is axis 4 on the
software.
2. Use of analogue quantities
(1) Only analog quantities (AO0~AO3)
can be sent from axes 0~3, and motion control
